An interactive Java application for visualizing the large amounts of data stored for sequence reads which are aligned against a reference genome sequence. BamView supports the BAM (Binary Alignment/Map) format. It can be used in a number of contexts including SNP calling and structural annotation. BamView has also been integrated into Artemis so that the reads can be viewed in the context of the nucleotide sequence and genomic features.
